MAA

Suffering to the utmost level,
My mother crying in pain
Night and day.  Her body
Hasn’t slept for days.
And the mind struggles
To have a fresh face.

She can’t breath, can’t sleep.
But, cooks delicacies indeed.
We see the pain and still
Pretend she is fine.

Rajma is preferred over Ma.
Indifference, if we don’t get it.
She craves for love and care.
But gets only ugly looks for
She is in pain all the time.

Her disease has created a distance
Unbridgeable perhaps.  So, not
concern, but only gets torment.
We love you Ma, but you love us more.
We feel guilty and still ill treat you.
